New Life is the title of this oil painting by Massachusetts artist Bruce Wood. It is a view of the stream running through the property of the Lyme Art Association in Old Lyme, Connecticut. Created in 2012, the image is inspired by the 19th Century American Impressionist painters who established the art colony in Old Lyme, but invigorated by Wood's training as a contemporary artist. New Life was exhibited at the Lyme Art Association as part of their Life Along The River exhibition in 2012. The 10" x 16" image is painted on stretched canvas. It is framed in a custom-made gold-metal leafed wooden frame measuring 26" x 22". Bruce Wood is a painter of New England marine and countryside scenes. As a teen, Wood learned plain air landscape painting in Gloucester, Massachusetts, where he studied with Emile Gruppe and a variety of Cape Ann marine painters. He went on to formal art training at Massachusetts College of Art (BFA), and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (MFA). Currently he is the oil painting conservator and director of the Woodshed Gallery in Franklin, Massachusetts, and an active member of the Lyme Art Association, Cape Cod Art Association, and several other New England art associations. Bruce Wood's prints and paintings are in the collections of the Bibliotheque Nationale, Paris, the University of Alabama, and the Rockford Art Museum in Illinois.
